Betti Krapfl, Volunteer

Hello Team!
I am Betti, and live in the metro Denver area in Greenwood Village, CO, but I’m
originally from North Carolina and went to UNC in Chapel Hill for my Physical Therapy degree. Yes! I am a Tar Heel!
I was a Peace Corps Volunteer in Bolivia, 1965-67 where I met Roger and am still married to the old goat!
We have two adult children: Heidi, who lives with her husband Erik in Santa Fe; Zach, who lives with his wife, Robyn in Paonia, CO—western CO.
I worked for many years as a Physical Therapist on a rehab team treating people with spinal cord injuries, some with traumatic brain injury. Loved it! Now, I teach in a Doctoral Physical Therapy program at the University of Colorado Medical School on our new campus. I love it as well!
Passions:
Friends, my family, running, IHN of Greater Denver (housing and caring for recently homeless families), March Madness, my small Lutheran church, our Siberian Husky, Nanook, desserts, oh, and did I mention running?? Teaching, mentoring current and prospective doctoral students.
I am a vegetarian. Should be interesting challenge from what I remember about Bolivian food. So eager to go back to Bolivia! And very excited about meeting all of you. Some of you I know already. We will be the BEST team ever!!
